OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FLUSHING THE SYSTEM:
CAUTION RISK OF UNIT DAMAGE. BE CERTAIN THE HOSE, GUN
AND NOZZLE ASSEMBLY ARE NOT CONNECTED TO THE UNIT
WHILE FLUSHING THE SYSTEM. FLUSHING ALLOWS MINERAL
DEPOSITS TO BE RELEASED FROM THE SYSTEM WHICH
WOULD OBSTRUCT OR DAMAGE THE GUN AND NOZZLE
ASSEMBLY RESULTING IN COSTLY REPAIRS.
This unit has a steel coil which, after setting, will cause the water remaining
in the coil from the previous usage to turn brown or black. This water must
be flushed from the system before start-up. This procedure should be per-
formed WITHOUT the high pressure hose, gun and lance assembly installed.
1. Turn on the water supply.
2. Start the engine following the start-up procedures given in the Engine
Manual accompanying this unit.
3. Adjust the engine to a low speed until you see water exiting the water
outlet. (This may take 3-5 minutes.) Adjust the engine throttle back to full
RPM.
4. Once the system is flushed, stop the engine and connect the high pressure
discharge hose to the water outlet of the unit.
5. Connect the trigger gun/dual lance assembly to the high pressure discharge
hose. Connect the desired nozzle to the dual lance assembly.
DANGER RISK OF INJECTION CAUSING SEVERE INJURY! -KEEP

is found, TURN MACHINE OFF IMMEDIATELY! Replace hose before
starting the machine. See "Risk of Injection" warnings. Be sure that
all damaged parts are replaced and that all mechanical problems have
been corrected prior to operation of the unit. Contact Customer Service
if necessary.
6. The unit is now operating as a cold water pressure washer. Trigger the gun
several times. Rotate adjustable grip on the dual lance for high and low
pressure application. NEVER place hand or fingers in front of the nozzle
or look directly into the nozzle!
